earth_vexer made icons. Like - OMG stunning, hot, gorgeous, *amazing* icons. Of Spike. And nakedness. And *guh*! I want them all! *whines*

And then (via Petzi) I found a link to Buffy the Vampire Slayer Omnibus Volume 1 where you can read the first 26 pages of 'Viva Las Buffy' (set pre-Season 1) which looks *great*! Might very well invest once it's published over here. The story is fun and fairly zips along and Buffy looks like Buffy!!!! It can be done! Go have a look! :) (OK the cover is pretty awful, but the stuff inside is lovely. Simple, clean lines and a great likeness.)

Oh, I like that so much better than the current S8.

I'm not a comic person, so I always like when the art work isn't *too* artsy, but more like an actual comic. And Buffy looks and behaves like Wee!Buffy does.

But then maybe I'm just thinking that, because a canon for pre-Series Buffy sort of exists. I know how I expect her to talk and act... But with S8 Buffy everything is (was) open. So she's not as familiar as this comic's Buffy. And since Gellar isn't there to sell the differences I'm still not sure if I'm liking S8.

Makes it easier to follow. Although I do love the pretty... *ogles 'Spike:Asylum' again*

Exactly. *pets Wee!Buffy*

I think that's an important point. This story reminds me of pre-series fics I've read, and I know where Buffy's at emotionally etc. There are points of reference. With post-show Buffy that all changes - esp when she looks nothing like SMG. ::sighs:: I'd like s8 SO much more if the art was good.
